Jack becoming a Dull boy
“All work and no play will make Jack a dull boy”
But what if jack wants to play and shine brightly but he’s not having a playground in his school to play and if having then he’s not having proper sports equipment in his school. This can be the matter faced by many students in our country there are many talents which remains latent simply because of lack of sports infrastructure in their schools.
Our body is sort of a machine. A machine cannot work without oiling within the same way our body cannot work properly without exercises, games and sports give us energy. Sports is additionally sort of a teacher there are many imperative qualities and skills that sports teach us like leadership quality, teamwork, discipline and spirit of working hard to accomplish goals.
There are two different views of individuals when it involves “Importance of sports in students life”
1. Majority of them think that the aim of students is to review and games and sports don’t seem to be necessary to them. They’re going to eat up most of their time then studies will suffer.
2. Some think that games and sports are very necessary for a student and must be a part of their existence so they’ll live a healthy life.
The importance of studies can’t be ignored but at the identical time, one must understand that sports and games also are equally important during student life. Thus the necessity of the hour is to reverse this proportion. Following graph shows the time that students give to physical activity:
Contributing less to sports also increases the possibilities of stress and depression in students that’s why it’s important to spice up and motivate students to participate in sports activities not only to form them enthusiastically but also to stay them faraway from stress, anxiety, and depression.
The Government of India has introduced ‘Panchyat Yuva Krida Aur Khel Abhiyan (PYKKA)’ to get sports culture at the grass-root level. The objectives of the scheme are to produce sports infrastructure/equipment at the Panchyat level and to encourage youth in rural areas to participate in sports. Various competitions are organized from block-level to national-level to attain these objectives. The committee approved Rs 1,500 crore for this project within the 11th Five-Year Plan.
Our respected prime minister Narendra Modi Ji also initiated the “fit India movement” and in pariksha pe charcha , he enlighted students about the importance of sports in a very student's life. Quoting “ fit Hoga India tabhi to hit Hoga India ”
We have seen that there are many faculties that lack a decent infrastructure for sports and that they even ignore it. The explanation behind that, they think this country needs scientists and thus they must target their studies and because it is the mindset of the many institutes that the sole aim of faculties is to supply bookish knowledge to students but that’s not proper the most aim of a faculty is to embrace a students talent by providing them different resources and thus allow them to know their latent talents.
There are a plethora of Indians sportsperson who made us feel happy with being called “Indian ”, think whether we’ll be having these great sports persons who contributed most in raising our name during this world like Sachin tendulkar, M.S Dhoni , Saina Nehwal , Saina Mirza
,Mary kom , Mikha singh , P.V. Sindhu , Geeta phogat if they’d not be motivated to follow their passion of sports.
Its expected that only duty of a student is to review but they can’t study all the time. There’s a limit to their energy doing the same work makes them disinterested and makes their life dull and monotonous.
Also for studies, they have to possess a healthy mind the physiological condition makes work better. Games and sports make them fit work. As then limbs move and blood circulates therefore the body functions better. One can say “ Health is that the basis of success”. Without physiological conditions, there’s no charm in life.
Thus before our country lost most of our talented “Saina Nehwal” and “Mikha Singh” simply because of the poor infrastructure of sports in their school let’s do something for them. There are some foundations that help the game enthusiastic children to play, we must spread awareness about them to people who are potent enough and excited to join them. Also, students must be encouraged to require part in numerous sports by appreciating them. Studies also are important and games too thus students must adopt this rule of life :
